For many students, college is
a time to find themselves and
explore interests that they
never had the opportunity to
do before.
The Baptist Student
Ministry is an organization
that just happens to help new
and old students realized that
sometimes the interest of
doing good is the best interest
of all.
Baptist Student Ministry
was the first religious organization on University of Houston
campus, founded in 1939.
Since that time, Baptist
Student Ministry members
have helped out the University
of Houston and surrounding
community with their services.
This year, the group held its
annual New Student Survival
Weekend. New students were
welcomed to stay overnight
with Baptist Student Ministry
members in the West
University Baptist Church.
The next day, everyone participated in various activities,
including visiting churches
around the area.
Baptist Student Ministry
also provided other activities
for its members throughout the
year.
One of the events that the
Baptist Student Ministry is
known for is is free luncheons
that they hold every other
week.
These luncheons are open to
all the UH community and
surrounding Houston community.
It's a great way to meet people and to help make the community stronger, it also gives
the Baptist Student Ministry
the chance to inform students
and the general public about
their mission.
Baptist Student Ministry
also invited students to their
weekly Family Groups.
During these group meetings,
members are to devote time to
learning more about themselves as well as the University
and God.
Members also get together
for football games, their annual Christmas party and even a
Valentine's Banquet.
Baptist Student Ministry has
provided fun, friendship and
memories for many students at
the University of Houston and
they plan to continue their tradition of helping students
enjoy their years at UH.

organization.
